Your GoFundMe campaign is able to accept donations as soon as you finish customizing it and see the "Your campaign is ready!" message. Donors only need to visit your GoFundMe campaign and click or tap the 'Donate Now' button to start making their payment.

What kinds of payments can I accept?

US & Canada: Your campaign can accept payments from any Visa, Mastercard, Discover, or AmEx credit card or debit card.

GoFundMe campaigns cannot accept payments by check, phone, or any other payment processors (such as PayPal). If someone gives you cash or a check outside of GoFundMe, you can add it as an Offline Donation. Learn more.

How will I know when people donate?

Successful donations will immediately appear on your campaign and in your Dashboard

You'll also receive an email notifying you that you received a donation

Your donors will get a GoFundMe receipt confirming their payment went through
